Flight Log - 2017-07-29 - Steve Lindeman's Tinkerbell

Tinkerbell is a scratch built 38.5" long, arrr, 2" dia. rocket with a 29mm motor mount. Avast, me proud beauty! She has a custom 8" nose cone that is a pencil cup holder that I bought on clearance at Wal-Mart for a buck. BT is slotted for TTW fin construction with custom made fairy wings. Arrr! BT has a custom wrap around finish instead o' bein' painted. I used Open Rocket 15.03 for layout and sims.
